Noveske 6.5 Grendel SPR

[CQB]

I'm attempting to build a long range SPR (or 20-24inch) in 6.5 Grendel.
Looking for a 6.5 Grendel made by Noveske. Has anyone heard anything yet on Noveske making a 6.5 Grendel barrel?
Also, any opinions on who makes the best 6.5 upper and bolt?
Thanks,

Grendel reamers are proprietary so I doubt you will see a Noveske grendel barrel.

As far as I know AA is the only outlet.

I am working on this right now (playing middle man between Bill A. and Noveske).

Assuming it would shoot as well as or better than Noveske's 16" 6.8 mm's, you should have one NICE long range rifle. Good luck!

That sounds like a very interesting combination. I look forward to hearing how well it performs.

Thanks C4, Please let Noveske no I'll buy in advanced if neccesary for a prototype.

With all due respect, the chamber reamers for 6.5 are proprietary. If you want a Poly rifled barrel you can purchase a PacNor blank (which is what Noveske uses) and have it sent to AA. They will cut any tube you want.

The barrels that Noveske uses are indeed Pac Nor, but that is about where the similarities stop. There is more to their barrels than just a PacNor blank.

Sure, contour and chamber. But when the 6.5 Grendel chamber is property of AA all that leaves is countour...which can be anything a customer wants. There for, it makes sense just to send a PacNor blank to AA if poly rifling is the criteria.

ETA: Of course the similarities stop at the blank, PacNor sells Noveske Blanks and then Noveske turns them into functioning barrels.
